In this forum I found several links to teamviewer, which is based on UltraVNC. It has the really cool feature to switch between server and client-mode in a connection with 2 computers. So you can see the screen of the other user and in one click he can see your screen instead.
But if a third teamviewer-client is connected what he sees will not switch, when the other two change the server. The connection is always on pc to the other.
Wouldn't it be possible to connect change this to a multipoint connection is you use something like a vnc-reflector (http://sourceforge.net/projects/vnc-reflector/), where a server and all clients connect to the reflector (normally on a different computer).
If you change the server here, all others would see the new server. At the moment we do something like this manually, the current vnc-server disconnects and opens a viewer on the reflector, while an other user connects his vnc-server to the reflector.
